Ishmael Bernal's chef-d'oeuvre Manila by Night is an equally realistic as hallucinatory portrait of the Philippine capital, the incredible - and incredibly confident in scene - social and (sub) cultural distance between the literally and spans the figurative sense of its title. Night is not only the setting of episodic stories, night and the varied goings is the fact that such contrasting places as participatory budgeting and Slumbehausungen, gay discos and fast food, health and brothels in the sign extensive sexual intercourse (from the waist up, and yet not prudish) if not then at least one comparable.
The sex of Manila by Night is neither the continuation of interpersonal communication with carnal means, even exceeded, go to either in the act, yet he interrupts her: Sex happens, and it is twinned to chance. On End we do not know whether this is a terrible Manila or a wonderful place, only that one likes to lead, if possible tonight.
